When Online Consultation Makes Sense — And When It Doesn't
Good for online consultation
- Minor and common ailments — fever, cold, cough, seasonal allergies, mild infections, and stomach upset
- Prescription renewals and refills for ongoing/chronic medication
- Follow-up consultations after an in-person visit or a procedure
- Reviewing lab reports, scans, or test results with a doctor
- Skin, hair, and visible-symptom concerns that can be assessed by camera
- Mental health, counselling, and psychiatry consultations
- General health advice, diet, and lifestyle guidance
See a doctor in person instead
- Chest pain, severe breathlessness, or any medical emergency — visit a hospital immediately
- Conditions requiring a physical examination — palpation, auscultation, or manual tests
- Injuries, fractures, or anything needing an X-ray, scan, or in-clinic diagnostic test
- Procedures, vaccinations, or treatments that require in-person administration
- A first-time evaluation of a complex or worsening condition your doctor recommends seeing in clinic
Online Consultation Fees in Chennai
Exact fees vary by specialty and doctor experience, and are always shown before you pay — there are no hidden platform fees.
Why You Can Trust NectarPlus Health
Every doctor is verified before they see patients
Before any doctor is listed on NectarPlus Health, we verify their medical council registration number, qualifications, and identity documents. Doctors offering video consultations in Chennai go through the same verification process as those seeing patients in person — there is no separate, lower bar for "online-only" doctors.
Your consultation and data stay private
Video consultations run over an encrypted connection, and your medical history, prescriptions, and consultation notes are stored securely and never shared with third parties without your consent. You can review or download your consultation records at any time from your account.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does online doctor consultation work on NectarPlus Health?
You choose a specialty and an available doctor in Chennai, pay the consultation fee online, and join a live video call at your scheduled slot — no app download is required, it works directly in your browser. During the call, the doctor reviews your symptoms or history, may ask you to show a visible concern on camera, and advises next steps. At the end of the consultation, a digital prescription and any recommended tests are shared to your account.
Is online consultation as effective as an in-person visit?
For many common situations — minor illnesses, prescription renewals, follow-ups, and visible skin/hair concerns — a video consultation with a verified doctor is just as effective as an in-person visit, and considerably faster. However, it is not a substitute for a physical examination: conditions that need palpation, auscultation, imaging, or in-clinic tests, or any emergency symptom such as chest pain or severe breathlessness, should always be seen in person. Doctors on NectarPlus Health will tell you upfront if your case needs an in-clinic visit instead.
Can I get a valid prescription from an online consultation in Chennai?
Yes. Doctors verified on NectarPlus Health can issue a valid digital prescription during a video consultation, in line with India’s telemedicine practice guidelines. The prescription is generated by the consulting doctor after reviewing your case and is accepted at pharmacies for dispensing medication, subject to standard restrictions on certain scheduled drugs that require an in-person exam.
What specialties are available for video consultation in Chennai?
Chennai currently has 17 specialties offering video consultation on NectarPlus Health, including General Physician, Family Physician, Dentist, Anesthesiologist, Diabetologist and Ayurveda. Each specialty page lists the specific doctors available, their fees, and their next available video slot, so you can pick the right specialist for your concern rather than a general doctor.
How much does an online doctor consultation cost in Chennai?
Video consultation fees in Chennai on NectarPlus Health typically range from ₹100 – ₹1,000, compared to ₹100 – ₹500 for an in-clinic visit with the same doctors. The exact fee depends on the doctor’s specialty and experience, and is always shown upfront before you pay — there are no hidden platform or convenience charges.
What do I need for a video consultation (app, device, internet)?
You need a phone, tablet, or laptop with a camera and microphone, and a stable internet connection (Wi-Fi or 4G/5G mobile data). The video call runs in your browser after you book, so no separate app installation is required — you’ll receive a join link by SMS and in your NectarPlus Health account a few minutes before your slot.
Can online consultations be used for follow-ups or only new issues?
Both. Online consultation on NectarPlus Health works well for brand-new minor concerns as well as follow-ups after an earlier in-person or video visit — for example, reviewing how a treatment is working, adjusting a prescription, or discussing lab results. If a follow-up reveals that an in-person examination is needed after all, your doctor will let you know and can usually refer you to their in-clinic slots directly.
